I have 2 bravo 3x drives on 496ho. is there any good aftermarket trans assembly, or is the OEM the way to go.

Hydraulic steering or cable? If your keeping this stock, not upping power or anything like that I’d stick with oem. Imco is the only other manufacturer or bravo style transom assemblies that come to mind. Their stuff is typically just beefed up mercury stuff for more power and speed etc.

Thanks for the feedback, will go with OEM,
